Cadw's description
Location
Situated on E side of road just N of entry to Gwarallt, some 1.5 km N of Trefilan.
History
Milestone on Lampeter to Aberystwyth road, dated 1859. As the milestones are generally thought to be early C19, this date may be added.
Exterior

Reason for designation
Listed for special interest as a relic of transport history in the area, unusual for the inscribed date.
